The older/westerly side that has been there (though in some different configurations) for many, many decades. The newer/easterly side (directly on the corner of 42nd) is new and has a music stage and sit-down tables.

otherwise, its bball with the ethernopians (thats a silly joke) at gojjo or dahlak. that sounds alright.

i specifically remember not being able to watch games there at times. i don't remember exactly why, but the most logical answer would be a lack of comcast.

is that a south park joke? starvin marvin episode i believe. btw, those two bars are very diverse in terms of the clientele.

um i dont know where i picked up that goofy ethernopian thing, i just keep using it for some reason.

anyways, i did check out dahlak today. got some kinda beef dish that completely cleared out my sinuses. looks like it will be suitable for sixers games, a pretty chill environment. thanks to all for your input.
